Species protection through environmentally friendly lighting

Tatort streetlight discovers causes for insect decline. Street lighting can severely impair nocturnal flying insects, as many insects are attracted to the light of the luminaires and withdrawn from their actual habitats. Help us to investigate which insects are affected by street lighting and how environmentally sound lighting solutions can help preserve the insects' habitat.

AlienScenarios will evaluate the range of plausible futures of biological invasions for the 21st century at different spatial scales and for a range of taxonomic groups.
